Gluten-Free Pantry, Glutino, Perfect Pie Crust, 16 oz (454 g)

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.

Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.

Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Entire bag Glutino Gluten Free Pantry Perfect Pie Crust Mix

3/4 cup + 2 tbsp butter

2 eggs

4 tsp vinegar

Cut the cold butter into pats, then work the pats into the mix until it's crumbly. Whisk the eggs and vinegar together until very foamy. Mix into the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture holds together. Adding 1 to 3 additional tablespoons cold water if necessary. Divide dough in half. Shape into balls and refrigerate or freeze one portion for later use. Chill other half for an hour or up to overnight. Allow the dough to rest at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before rolling. Roll out into two 8 inch circles on a piece of parchment paper. Invert the crust into the prepared pie pan. If making unfilled crust, prick bottom and bake at 375°F for 25 minutes.

Cool before filling.

For all other single or double crust pies, follow recipe instructions.

You may adapt the recipe to suit your needs by using an equal amount of a substitute ingredient.

My family and I love this pie crust and my husband hates gluten free products but loves this pie crust. I use wax paper and a bit of gluten free flour when rolling it out. I use the wax paper to gently place the crust where needed. This usually works but on occasion it can break in half or into a few pieces. Doesn't really bother me because this pie crust is so yummy. Don't change a thing Glutino! This pie crust taste great with savoury or sweet pies.

I ordered Gluten-Free Pantry pie crust which was advertised with an ingredient list that had no tapioca flour in it, but received Glutino pie crust which has tapioca. i-herb would not pay for me to return it so I am an unhappy customer. Lots of other places to shop, however!

When making pie pastry I wasted a lot of time by following the instructions and trying to roll this out as I would normal pastry. Even when using plastic wrap to support the dough (as instructed), it fell apart every time I tried to transfer it to the pan. Out of desperation to produce my pie on time for Thanksgiving, I eventually just pressed pieces of dough together into the pan, It still came out surprisingly flakey. In fact it is so flakey that you need to be careful not to touch it once it is cooked or it instantly crumbles.
It tasted good - much better than the GF crust I made from scratch.
I would buy it again but I will ignore the instructions on the box for rolling out the dough.

I have used this product for a long time. iHerb gave me a ten dollar gift certificate so I was able to buy this at a much more affordable price. I must wait for a sale price or some sort of help because the price for this seems to be on a rocket ship to the moon.
It does not roll out the best, but I pat the dough in the pan and that works for me. The taste is great. My husband is the one who is gluten intolerant but I really like this too.
